Silver strongbox update#
An updated video presentation on results to date at Strongbox may be found at East Goldfield Project Update Silver Range believes a bulk tonnage target might be present here or at other locations on the property. Chip sampling across workings at the Dark Secret Mine by Silver Range in 2017 returned 40 m 0.469 g/t Au including 20 m 0.695 g/t Au. Where vein density is sufficiently high, wider lower grade intervals of mineralization may develop. Grab samples from these veins and float have returned up to 27.6 g/t Au and a chip sample returned 0.30 m 5.25 g/t Au. Gold occurs in en-echelon, generally NNE striking quartz veins up to 2 m wide in an ENE-WSW trending deformation zone.

Intermittent hard rock mining on the property was conducted from approximately 1890 until the 1980's. Strongbox is 95 kilometres (km) south of Tonopah and 80 km west of Beatty in southwest Nevada.

Rock sampling conducted concurrently with the soil survey returned up to 5.69 g/t Au from the best of four samples collected on the west grid, approximately 250 m southwest of the Dark Secret Mine. The survey delineated a number of targets for follow-up trenching and suggests that bedrock gold mineralization west of Tule Canyon is much more widespread than the gold mineralization located to date. The highest sample in the survey was collected in an area where float grab samples returned up to 5.60 g/t Au. West of Tule Canyon, the survey identified numerous anomalies greater than 100 ppb Au with peak analysis of 4,290 ppb Au (4.29 g/t gold) in regions of thin colluvium and alluvium. (TSXV:SNG) ("Silver Range" or the "Company") is pleased to provide results from a recent exploration program at the Strongbox Property in Esmeralda County, NV.Īt Strongbox, a soil geochemical survey was conducted on a 2,220 m by 600 m grid centred on the known bedrock mineralization in Tule Canyon.
